We recently spent a night in a basic room during ski season. The underground parking was excellent, rooms were very clean, sauna/hot tub facilities were as expected. The bed was quite firm and comfortable too.

The only negative I saw was that the room was very small. The bathroom and hall were a decent size, but the "room" was taken up by the bed, with about a two foot border on all three sides. It was a great room to spend a night during ski season, but it would quickly get cramped if I were staying more than a couple nights.

Room Tip: I was in room 102B and maybe some of the other basic rooms are larger. Ask when booking!

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Trip Advisor community from your stay with us this past weekend. Glacier Mountaineer Lodge offers some exceptional amenities and the hot tub and steam room are a great compliment after an epic day on the slopes. The hotel style suites are perfect for a couple of nights, however, if you are looking for more living space, an upgrade to a one bedroom or two bedroom unit is recommended. Thanks again for the review and we hope we can host you again soon.

This was one of our best decisions to stay in Kicking Horse Resort rather than in Golden itself. The Glacier Mountaineer Lodge was really perfect. The room was very nice, well equipped and clean. Staff was friendly. From the balcony we had a nice view up the mountains.

It's an ideal place to take the first chair lift in the morning to the Grizzly refuge, which we would definitely recomment.

There are a couple of Restaurants in this area, we had dinner at The Peaks and it was good.

Thank you for the kind review from your stay with us this past summer. There are many lodging options in the town of Golden and I am glad you chose Glacier Mountaineer Lodge as your destination. There are plenty of actives at Kicking Horse and I see you had the opportunity to visit Boo, Kicking Horse’s resident Grizzly Bear. Many thanks for the review and perhaps one day we can host you again.

What are great place to visit during the quiet season. My daughter and I had a nice weekend away and enjoyed our time at the lodge. The room was very clean and extremely cozy, especially with the fire place. The rates were excellent and I would defiantly return.

Thank you very much for sharing your comments with the Trip Advisor Community from your weekend getaway at Glacier Mountaineer Lodge. I am pleased to hear that you and your daughter have a wonderful stay with us. The shoulder season is a great time to visit the Resort, especially if you’re looking to just come and relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of your surroundings. Thank you again for your review and we look forward to hosting you again soon.

My family's experience at the Glacier Mountaineer Lodge was absolutely terrible. There is no air conditioning (or ceiling fans or even opening windows in each room) in any of the guest rooms. Upon arrival, our room was stifling hot. No attempt whatsoever had been made to cool the room. When we called the front desk, we were told unapologetically "you should try turning on a fan or opening the window" (difficult to do when most windows don't open). We got virtually no sleep all night, between the heat, the absurdly loud noise and blowing of the fan (and having to move the fan from room to room), and the idiots yelling and skateboarding outside our room all night into the next morning. The absolute disinterest in our discomfort and displeasure by Bellstar staff was insulting. Bellstar blamed everyone but themselves and rejected responsibility, offering a complimentary stay – I would rather sleep in my car than return to the Glacier Mountaineer Lodge.

Thank you for sharing your concerns from your visit with us this past August. I understand how the room temperatures can affect ones stay and I am very sorry that you didn’t have a restful sleep with respect to the warmth as well with the noise you mentioned during the evening hours. I really hope you and your family will take advantage of the complimentary stay our Team extended to you for the troubles you encountered with your reservation. Once again, thank you for your feedback and we hope to host you again at one of our Bellstar Family of Resorts.

Stopped there on our way to Banff. Very nice and new hotel. It's located about 10 km from Golden in the mountains, you can see some wildlife on the way there.Rooms are large and well equipped. Kicking horse resort is on a smaller side, but this is by far the best accomodation in the area.

Thank you very much for the kind review from your stay with us at Glacier Mountaineer Lodge. It’s great to hear that you were able to make the short trip from the town of Golden up to Kicking Horse Mountain Resort to experience what the area has to offer. Thank you once again for sharing your comments with the Trip Advisor Community and we hope you can visit us again soon.

Great liitle store on site with restaurants right on site and others with in walking distance! We will be repeat customers!!!

Thank you for the excellent review from your stay with us. We currently have some great shoulder season rates for Glacier Mountaineer Lodge and I’m glad you were able to scoop up a nice deal. Please be sure to ask about our Return Guest Rate when you book direct with Bellstar Hotels & Resorts for additional savings. Thank you once again for the review and we look forward to hosting you again soon.

I have never stayed at a resort that offers the views like Glacier Mountaineer Lodge! We had a room in Mountaineer facing the valley and the scenery is unparalleled. The room was extremely clean and the staff was very positive and helpful. If you stay here request the valley side, it’s defiantly worth it.

Thank you for sharing your excellent review with the Trip Advisor Community from your stay with us at Glacier Mountaineer Lodge. I must agree with you that the scenery is unmatched up here at Kicking Horse and I’m glad you were able to take it all in. Thank you again for the review and I will be sure to share your comments with our staff.

Standing at the base of the ski runs and just steps from the gondola are the Glacier and Mountaineer lodges. These beautiful executive style condos and rooms are fully furnished and were designed with creature comfort in mind. All condos have fully equipped kitchens, gas fireplaces and spectacular views. For your relaxation and enjoyment both lodges are equipped with a fitness room complete with a sauna, steam bath and an outdoor hot tub....more less
